Sonoma County ReCooperage

(California Wine Country)

The Process

ReCoop Barrels, an early pioneer to reconditioning wine barrels, is celebrating 30 years in business. Our proprietary process is simple:

ReCoop Barrels using specially designed machines, planes the wood "with the grain", removing 1/4" of the interior to ensure that all wine-penetrated wood is removed while maintaining the wood's integrity and allowing the stave to once again contribute its flavor and oxygenation benefits. We take special care to select only these barrels that pass our inspection process.
